Mario Bunge, author of the monumental Treatise on Basic Philosophy, is widely renowned as a philosopher of science. In this new and ambitious work he shifts his attention to the social sciences and the social technologies. He considers a number of disciplines, including anthropology, sociology, economics, political science, law, history, and management science. Bunge contends that social science research has fallen prey to a postmodern fascination with irrationalism and relativism. He urges social scientists to re-examine the philosophy and the methodology at the base of their discipline. Bunge calls for objective and relevant fact-finding, rigorous theorizing, and empirical testing, as well as morally sensitive and socially responsible policy design.

reviewed Social science under debate on April 18, 2021 Social science under debate
Although certain sections of this book seem to tie together ideas of philosophy in the sciences and the following social science applications of that philosophy particularly well, there are times it fails completely to explain entire sections of philosophical investigation.
On the influences of Marx, the book often fails to justify exactly how Marx applies, and is particularly sparse in clarifying the feminist positions of epistemology. If anything, it has made me more confused on these topics than when I started on these points rather than more directed in where I can gain understanding. Perhaps this book should have been two: Philosophy and History of Empiricism of Social Science and Philosophy and History of Rationalism and Realism of Social Science.
